Add network listen functions that accept a family argument (AF_INET(6?)).
These allow code to portably support IPv6 for listeners (mostly file
transfers and Bonjour). Callers should use the purple_socket_speaks_ipv4
to determine whether they need two sockets or just an IPv6 one. I used
GIO's g_socket_speaks_ipv4 as the inspiration for that.
